ISO 3166-1 County & Nation State Data Stores

A Country Code Problem

Text/CSV Viewer, Excel 2003, Access 2003

The Problem:

If you have ever been mildly curious over the country ID listing, or ever engaged in a project where language identification was important having to come up with a digital list of the global nation states can be a time consuming business.

This article simply saves you the time, having had me spend the time compile the list for you!

The Fix

If you need the country list, you can use my files below as a base for your project.

The data source has been taken from the latest revision of the ISO public states list (ISO 3166-1) registry, so any errors are universally the ISO’s problem if indeed there are any.
